Why can't people look for the positives in things rather than always trying to be cold and cynical...
Because a lot of gamers have courted cynicism for so long that it's become the standard when approaching anything the industry does. In any other year during the previous console generation bashing E3 itself would go by without complaint. Now that we've had this ludicrous dream E3 where nearly everything that people begged for is finally being made (all that was missing was a Half-Life 3 announcement), the usual cynicism from the usual sources appears sounds a lot pettier because they come across as being unreasonable, like nothing would ever satisfy them.
